Distributed Application/2 V1.2 is now available
Featuring CICS and IMS 4.1 access
November 30, 93
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION:
Are you or your customers looking for an easier way to create client/
server applications? Distributed Application/2 (DA/2) is a set of APIs
that simplify client/server communications in OS/2*. These APIs hide
the complexity of the supported communications protocols (APPC, NetBIOS
and OS/2 named pipes), and enable you to select a protocol at run time
without requiring any code change! The DA/2 APIs have been enabled for
C and REXX, or other 32 bit languages supporting C calling conventions.
DA/2 can communicate with CICS and IMS using APPC. DA/2 is easy to
install and supports the CID architecture. DA/2 DLLs can be
redistributed with your application without royalty payments.
NEW FUNCTIONS FOR THIS RELEASE:
o Access to CICS/MVS and CICS/ESA applications is provided by
a CICS Access Tool and native APPC application support in DA/2.
The CICS Access Tool is shipped with DA/2.
o Access to IMS 4.1 is provided by the IMS V4.1 native LU 6.2
capability and the native APPC application support in DA/2.
(Previous versions of IMS are still supported as in DA/2 V1.1)
PRICE INFORMATION:
o DA/2 V1.1 customers will receive a free upgrade if they have sent in
their registration card.
o Suggested list price: $299 USD
